A possibly updated reissue (2011) of Campbell's 1976 article can be found at http://survey.ate.wmich.edu/jmde/index.php/jmde_1/article/view/297/292. konetidy (talk) 06:52, 30 July 2012 (UTC)konetidyReply

Garbled quote?

edit
In his article, “Assessing the Impact of Planned Social Change[8]”, Campbell emphasized that “the more quantitative social indicator used for social decision-making is subjected to corruption pressure and liable to distort and damage social processes it meant to monitor.”

This seems like a garbled version of the longer quote at the beginning of the article, with some words changed and others left out. It doesn't parse or quite make sense. However, I hestitate to edit it because I don't have access to the original article to check the quote against it. --Jim Henry (talk) 18:41, 8 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
